With Me in My Struggles - v3


Even when I am torn,
pulled in multiple directions,
even in the midst of discerning
which way I should turn

God is always with me
with me in my struggles
guiding me through
my chaos to the other side

God will not forsake me,
leaving me wandering, lost,
even in the midst of discerning
which way I should turn

Even when I am broken,
struggling in this season,
God is always with me
whatever comes my way

A Harvest of the Garden - v3

An answer to my prayer within seconds,
being specific, direct, honest,
pouring my heart out to God;
A petition, raw, with emotion,
for provision, for direction,
for a financial way forward
to share God's words, His love.
 
A Harvest of the Garden,
of Eden, of Gethsemane,
fruits I have been gifted,
words I am given to share;
Life, light, in the gift of Jesus,
joy in our salvation, our restoration,
in the true expression of God's love.

A penny – v2

Sitting outside the store
grabbing a bite of lunch
stopping for a few minutes, a break,
seeing a customer approach
who I know so well.
 
Asked where the birthday cards are,
repeating a similar question, as she does
every time she enters the store;
A card was in her hand when she came out.
 
She bent down beside me
Silently stopping, reaching,
a penny was her quest, her desire;
But she wordlessly put the penny
in my hand instead.
 
A nod, a thank you,
for her moment of kindness;
I passed on the penny to the next customer
who walked out the door.

“I will never understand American Christianity’s

response to the pandemic. I’m so grieved by

reckless choices that lead to real life consequences

for the whole community. And I wonder in the

Church’s failure in this also grieves the heart of God.”

My reply:

https://twitter.com/raymondafoss/status/1368230798323822593

if "#Jesus wept." for the death of one friend,

Lazarus, how much more so must #God weep for this

loss of life from the pandemic.

John 11:35

“Jesus wept.”

invade my #heart, my #soul


shake me, stir me,
crack me wide open;
create an opening, a path;
find a way into my spirit
pour me out, empty me.
 
pierce my shell
my reserve, my clay,
my desire for control;
may Your Love flood me,
may your Spirit invade my body;
oh Lord, fill my soul.
 
invade my heart, my soul,
my empty earthen vessel
like the flames on Pentecost;
find rest, an eternal home,
deep within me, oh loving God.
 
oh God, my Savior,
wash me clean, where I am broken,
restore me. make me whole;
drench my inner self
flood me, cleanse me;
oh Lord, fill my soul.

invade my heart - v3

shake me, stir me,
crack me wide open;
find a way into my spirit
pour me out, empty me;
 
invade my heart, my soul,
my empty earthen vessel;
find rest, an eternal home,
deep within me, oh loving God.
